Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 review
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 superzoom combines a 12x zoom and 25mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with 720p video recording to create an excellent follow-up to the earlier TZ6 model. This 'hybrid' camera produces superb images, but does it come out on top in the sibling rivalry? Read more

Fujifilm FinePix Z700EXR review
The FinePix Z700EXR offers good value for money, packing in a 12-megapixel sensor, a 5x optical zoom and a touchscreen interface. While Fujifilm's EXR high-sensitivity and high-dynamic-range modes aren't as impressive as they once were, it's still a decent snapper Read more

Canon EOS 550D review
The 18-megapixel Canon EOS 550D is a very impressive digital SLR. Its photo quality hasn't moved on massively from that of its predecessor, the EOS 500D, but its high-definition videos are excellent, and its high-ISO performance is exceptional. It's pricey though Read more

Canon PowerShot A2000 IS review
The PowerShot A2000 IS is an uncomplicated, 10-megapixel compact that produces above-average pictures but fails to excite. With countless rivals offering more interesting features, you can't help but feel that this is the Ford Focus of digital cameras Read more

Samsung GX-20 review
This top-end digital SLR is not for beginners, that much is for sure. It's solid and produces accurate exposures with deeply colourful pictures, but there's also a crude side to its design. And, since it's essentially the same camera as the Pentax K20D, it's worth a scrutinising look, even if the price is right Read more

Sigma DP1 review
The DP1 is the companion camera to Sigma's SD14. It uses the same unique three-layer Foveon sensor, but this time in a compact body with a fixed focal-length lens. It's designed for photographers looking for simplicity, clarity and quality rather than gimmicks, and are prepared to invest serious cash in their hobby Read more

Nikon Coolpix P6000 review
Nikon's 13.5-megapixel P6000 looks so good on paper you might wonder whether you need a digital SLR at all. Its sensor matches the pixel count of any low-medium range dSLR, its 4x zoom is more than the average kit lens, it shoots raw files, has a full set of exposure modes and there's vibration reduction too Read more

Casio Exilim EX-Z300 review
The 10-megapixel Casio Exilim EX-Z300 compact doesn't break new ground in terms of optical science, but it is packed with enough features to satisfy even the most demanding techno-zealot. Whether that's enough to outweigh its average picture quality, however, depends on your attitude to gadgetry Read more

Sigma DP2 review
The DP2 is how cameras used to be -- a box with a lens, and just enough controls to let you get the picture you want. And the picture quality is excellent, offering clarity that's on a par with 10- to 12-megapixel digital SLRs and streets ahead of any other compact. You'll have to fork out for it, though Read more

Samsung i85 review
Samsung thinks we don't just want a camera but an MP3 player, movie player, world tour guide and storage device all rolled into one. The i85 is the result: a stylish 8-megapixel compact with a 5x zoom and enough features to keep you entertained on the plane and informed when you get to where you're going Read more
